Behringer FX2000 Virtualizer Effects

Get even more mind-expanding power for your keyboard, bass, guitar or vocals with the Virtualizer Pro 3D FX2000 Effects Processor. This amazing rack unit has 71 incredible algorithms, including true studio-grade stereo and 3D effects that will add a head-spinning dimension to your sound, both live and in the studio. The FX2000 employs Behringer RSM (Real Sound Modeling) technology to simulate acoustic environments with stunning accuracy. Effects options include powerful modulation, amp simulation, distortion and special effects, as well as effective dynamic and psychoacoustics processing. Performance is further enhanced through user-addressable high and low EQ and wave-adaptive Virtual Room reverb algorithms.

Much More than Just Reverb and Delay

The FX2000 has some of the best-sounding reverb and delay programs, but that's not all. It also provides excellent modulation effects (such as chorus, flanger and phaser), including special variations like musical pitch shifter, tremolo and even a rotary speaker simulation.

Modulation and Pitch Shifter FX:
- Stereo Flanger (originally generated by playing back two synchronized "reel to reel" tape recorders with a finger rubbing on the flange of one of the take-up reels)
- Vintage Flanger simulates a guitar flanger stompbox
- Jet Stream Flanger sounds like a classic analog flanger
- Stereo Chorus (combines a slightly detuned signal with the original)
- Analog Chorus simulates a guitar chorus stompbox
- Vintage Chorus imitates a classic analog studio chorus
- Ultra Chorus creates the sound of an eight-voice chorus
- Stereo Phaser (combines a second, phase-shifted signal to the original)
- Vintage Phaser represents a guitar phaser stompbox
- Dual Phaser processes the left and right channels separately
- Rotary (simulation of the rotating speakers typically used on an organ) -- Slow or Fast
- Pitch Shifter (changes the pitch of the original signal) -- can be used to create harmonies with the original signal or replace it entirely with the altered pitch. Choices include stereo, two and three vocal pitch shifter
- Vibrato: the peak frequency of the tone is periodically and uniformly changed (quickly or slowly)
- Tremolo (common vintage guitar amplifier effect): a fast or slow periodic variation in volume
- Auto Panning: signal is automatically sent from one side of the stereo image to the other, either once or multiple times

Psychoacoustic FX:
- Exciter: adds artificially generated overtones to the original signal, increasing presence and perceived loudness without significant increase in signal level
- Enhancer: functions much like a dynamic pitch equalizer
- Ultra Bass: sub-harmonic processor combined with bass exciter and limiter
- Stereo Imager: divides the signal into middle and side signals, allowing individual signals to be amplified when desired and placed on the stereo image
- Ultra Wide: creates a broader stereo image
- Binauralizer: also creates a broader stereo image and compensates for crosstalk between both speakers

Filter/EQ FX:
- Auto Filter: influences the frequency response of a signal. Two filters are included: low-pass allows low frequencies to pass and suppresses
high-frequency content; high-pass does the exact opposite
- LFO Filter: Controls the rate of oscillation effects
- Parametric EQ: allows you to control the bandwidth, frequency and amplitude of a signal
- Graphic EQ: the sound spectrum is divided into eight (8) adjacent frequency bands, which can be cut or boosted, bandwidth is predetermined

Special FX:
- Vinylizer: adds clicks and/or noise to the signal, reminiscent of old vinyl records and tape machines
- Sampler: allows you to record and playback up to five (5) seconds of program material
- Vocoder: allows the input signal to modulate another signal (usually a synthesizer sound), creating the familiar "talking synthesizer" effect
- Voice Canceler: removes mono vocal parts from stereo recordings for
"instant Karaoke"
- Resonator: simulates and oscillating system that amplifies a specific frequency Our FX Combinations Go to 11

Sometimes you want to add a little (or a lot) of color to your reverb and delay patches. The FX2000 allows you to layer modulation effects like chorus, flanger, pitch or tremolo with your reverb or delay selections.

Enhanced User Editability

Logical grouping of parameters, along with the combination of encoders, buttons, LEDs and an easily readable LED display, make operating the FX2000 a breeze. You are free to edit up to seven parameters per preset, and then save them for future use in the 100 provided memory locations.

Value

With its extremely powerful processing capability and versatile array of features, the FX2000 will become the busiest tool in your audio arsenal -- both in the studio and on the road.

"Definatly worth buying if you were broke and on a budget and you only buy one thing than this is it just for the gate or c"

Sound:
I use this Unit in between my Mixer and ART PRO VLA II and its a Great Unit for the Price. Most of my equipment must do double duty right now at home in the Studio as well as out on the road in live venues. While I havn't had the chance to use this at a live venue as of yet I really can't wait to try it out the diffrence it made in my recordings was astounding.
Feature:
as with most Behringer products it has almost too many features. I have not had a chance to use every single one but each effect I have used is editable and saveable
Ease of Use:
I found it extremely easy to use. Read the quick Start Guide hooked it up and that was that. I guess it might be intimidateing to some one less educated or experienced but that wasn't the case for me.
Quality:
I rate it an 8 on quality because of the cheap plastic knobs and the midi/mix knob gets really stiff about half way around (They may have designed it that way on purpose and if thats the case I wish they hadn't I would of preffered a smooth linear action)it free's back up right past the 1/2 way mark.
Value:
I bought the blowout model at 1/2 price and I have to say this unit would of been worth the full price and then some its worked perfectly far exeeding my expectations
Manufacturer Support:
I can't Say havn't needed them as of yet.
The Wow Factor:
I don't really know how to answer this one so I rated it 6. While not just drop dead gorgeous it definatly added to the overall appeal of my Rack.
Overall:
I will keep this untill it dies for sure and even replace it. That being said I will be adding other equipment for stand alone features
I love that it did what it said it would do and then some. I don't like the cheap plastic knobs and the midi/mix knobs sticky action

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

"Impressive!"

Overall:
Very easy to use. The sound quality is much better than many of the vst-plugins I've used, and build quality is really good. Only complaints I have, is that the main jogwheel is a bit too sensitive to my taste and it feels like it might brake down after some years of use, and that it could have more of different delay types.
